When You Feel Abandoned by God — You’re Not | Psalm 137

“Displaced doesn’t mean discarded.”
That was the core message from this week’s sermon on Psalm 137, a raw, rarely preached lament filled with sorrow, anger, and deep loss — but also, surprisingly, hope.

Worship Director Seron Brown delivers a vulnerable, Spirit-led message about what it means to live in exile — to feel far from God, stripped of your purpose, your security, or your sense of belonging — and how the gospel speaks directly into that pain.

Through the lens of Israel’s exile and the brutal honesty of Psalm 137, Seron shows us how:

Sin led to their exile (and sometimes leads to ours)

Sorrow isn’t the opposite of faith — it is faith

Jesus is the Savior in Exile — dashed so we could be delivered

If you’ve ever felt distant from God, like you're sitting by your own "river of Babylon," this message reminds you: you are seen, loved, and never truly discarded. Jesus is already in your exile — waiting to bring you home.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

You don’t have to fake joy — real joy can hold space for sorrow.
Lament is worship.
Jesus stepped into exile so you wouldn’t stay there.
